What do you recommend as the best time of year to visit your fair state?
Two of us with 4wd, camper & tinnie.
Like fish for trout and visit spots away from the crowds.
Time frame approx 3-4 weeks.
RegardsIs it tinea or has it just been too long since the last trip?

Hi Wim,
Feb March is what we tell all of the tourists, it is usually the finest and most stable weather, but it does get busy. Every accomodation bed was full on last Friday night.
Tassie is beautiful all year round it just depends on how much you can handle the cold. Saying that we are warmer then a lot of
places in Aus.

Gday Wim,i agree with Glenos,we usually do most of our
camping in late Feb and March.Carnt comment on
camping down south or on the West Coast as we usually
camp around the Nth East- East coast area.Its nice
camping around Tomahawk(caravan park) and a little further around at Musscelroe Bay(
bush camping),
Cape Portland also has a
nice camping spot overlooking the bay(good sea fishing).Down the East coast there is (was?)good
camping spots around
Eddystone Point (
most easterly point of Tassie).If you ever get a chance Flinders Island is a top spot but you need atleast a week to look around.
As for fishing there is good
camping spots all around the Great
Lake with good fishing around the shore.From here you have hundreds of lakes for trout fishing and its very nice up around the Central Highlands.
Hope you have a good trip and send us a Email if you need any more info. nicky.byard@bigpond.com.au
